He's 86 now.
He'll conveniently die before sentence is passed, sparing a lot of people a lot of embarrassment.

There's little possibility of a sentence...
"A judge will now decide if Lord Janner is fit to stand trial. If not, he will face what is known as a "trial of the facts", where a court hears evidence from alleged victims and decides only if Lord Janner committed the physical acts of abuse. There will be no finding of guilt or conviction."

sounds a bit dodgy to me
He wont be able to defend himself at this trial, it will only hear evidence from the prosecution and although it cant pronounce him 'guilty' it can decide whether he committed the crime.
Wouldnt anyone want the right to defend themselves if they were accused of offences like these?
